    @knightofzero actually, i think you might be okay and not need the wheel spacers (if my math is correct). But to be sure, have the shop lift the truck so the suspension can fully droop. Then look to see if the rim/tire contact the UCA or the spindle. I doubt they will but always good to check.

    I would go with the Maxtrac Spindle and a new leaf spring at the rear. You can easily achieve a 5" lift with excellent drive ability with this setup. The spindles will kick out the front 3/4 inch on each side. I have the Maxtrac on my truck with the Dakar Leaf Spring in the rear, Fox shocks and 33's. I also used a Spidertrax 1 1/4 wheel spacer in the rear to balance out the look. My setup has been on the truck for over 80,000 miles and drives fantastic! The Nitto Trail Grapplers will have over 100,000 miles on them before they need to be changed.
